Siege of Fire

[RedRoverMan]

Playing as Aegon from the Conquest, I really want Harren and his family to be fried in Harrenhal as per canon. I saved at the point where I'm sieging Harrenhal (he is inside 'defending'), I've reloaded a bunch of times and re-used the decision to have my dragon attack the castle, but the event never fires which decimates all the courtiers inside. I even went into the mod-file and changed the line of

	# immediate = {
		# random = {
			# chance = 25

to 'chance = 100' under the "Many courtiers fried" event, but still nothing happens.

Can someone help? I managed to fry Harren and his family by chance in a pevious save, but I can't do it at all this time round.

Okay so I had a look at it, and it appears the entire event has been hash-tagged out in this version, why??

 

[RedRoverMan]

I've had a couple of playthroughs now, and I haven't been able to get the event that fries all the courtiers to fire in one single siege in this version, can someone please help and explain why??

 

[RedRoverMan]

Anyone???? Has anybody else been able to get the event that kills all the courtiers to fire?

If you want them to die that badly, just use the kill command.

If you want them to die that badly, just use the kill command.

That wouldn't fire the event.

This is the event you're looking for I guess?

It's disabled as you see, can be found in events/dragon_events and you'll have to manual enable it again by removing the #'s infront of it.

That isn't the correct event, that has been removed for a while. The event which exterminates a castle is dragon.40. Only dragons with a martial of 60 or higher have a chance of triggering this however. If you use use Balerion for example this line applies:

if = {
					limit = { ROOT = { check_variable = { which = "dragon_strength" value = 100 } } }
					morale = -1.0
					troops = -1.0
					leader = {
						random_list = {
							80 = { character_event = { id = dragon.32 tooltip = TOOLTIPdragon.32 } }
							20 = { character_event = { id = dragon.40 tooltip = TOOLTIPdragon.40 } }
						}	
					}
				}

which means there is a 20% chance for everyone to be fried.

That line isn't in the dragon_events file. This is the whole dragon.40 event currently in the latest version of the mod:

#Castle decimated
character_event = {
	id = dragon.40
	desc = "EVTDESCdragon.40"
	picture = "GFX_siegeoffire"
	border = "GFX_event_normal_frame_war"
	
	is_triggered_only = yes
	
	immediate = {
		hidden_tooltip = {
			if = {
				limit = { NOT = { trait = in_hiding } }
				mother = {
					if = {
						limit = { NOT = { is_close_relative = FROM } }
						opinion = {
							modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative
							who = FROM
							years = 25
						}
					}	
				}
				father = {
					if = {
						limit = { NOT = { is_close_relative = FROM } }
						opinion = {
							modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative
							who = FROM
							years = 25
						}
					}	
				}
				any_child = {
					limit = {
						NOT = { is_close_relative = FROM }
						NOT = {
							has_opinion_modifier = {
								who = FROM
								modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative

						}
					}
					opinion = {
						modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative
						who = FROM
						years = 25
					}
				}
				any_sibling = {
					limit = {
						NOT = { is_close_relative = FROM }
						NOT = {
							has_opinion_modifier = {
								who = FROM
								modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative

						}
					}
					opinion = {
						modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative
						who = FROM
						years = 25
					}
				}
				spouse = {
					if = {
						limit = {
							NOT = {
								has_opinion_modifier = {
									who = FROM
									modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative
								}						
							}
						}
						opinion = {
							modifier = opinion_burned_closed_relative
							who = FROM
							years = 25
						}				
					}
				}
				any_dynasty_member = {
					limit = {
						is_close_relative = ROOT
						NOT = { is_close_relative = FROM }
						NOT = {

					}
					opinion = {

					}				
				}
			}	
		}
	}
	
	option = {
		name = "EVTOPTAdragon.40"
		hidden_tooltip = {
			FROM = { character_event = { id = dragon.41 } }
			location = {
				owner = {
					any_courtier = {
						limit = {
							NOT = { character = ROOT }
							NOT = { character = FROM }
							NOT = { in_command = yes }
							at_location = ROOT
							NOT = { trait = in_hiding }
						}
						character_event = { id = dragon.4010 }
					}
				}
			}	
			recalc_succession = yes
		}
		if = {
			limit = { NOT = { trait = in_hiding } }
			death = {
				death_reason = death_battle
				killer = FROM
			}
			FROM = { 
				random_friend = {
					limit = { trait = dragon age = 2 }
					tooltip = { }
				}
			}
		}	
	}
}

I've repeatedly tried to get it to fire but haven't been able to do so even once, this would explain why. Where can I add that line into the event so that it fires?

 

[knuckey]

OK I see the problem now. The game isn't putting leaders on sieges, which is the character targeted by the event. Will try and find a workaround for the next version.

 

[gbboxer]

I've had this problem as well. I believe it's because there isn't a defending character in the siege. The newer versions of CK2 just don't have defenders for some reason. I had to reverted back to 2.1.6 and use an older version of this mod to play with the event.

 

[kleine_snoepert]

That wouldn't fire the event.
